  • The Travelin' Grampa
    The Travelin’ Grampa Touring the U.S.A. without an automobile Focus on safe, fast, convenient, comfortable, cheap travel, via public transit. Vol. 11, No. 12½, December 2018 Photo credits: Facebook, Chris Davenport & Douglas Diehl, Philadelphia Metropolitan Area Transit Scene. Destination sign on this Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority bus says “The Grinch.” It’s the first prize winner in this year’s SEPTA decorative bus contest. Grinch face on its front can change expression. Inside is decorated to resemble Whoville at Xmastime. For more, click on: www.fox29.com/good-day/377207143-video Buses, subways, streetcars celebrate the holidays season Coast to coast, colorfully decorated transit vehicles express the holidays spirit this year. Some are stationary, such as the old streetcar at the Milwaukee Public Museum and the Western Holiday Express at a Philadelphia railroad station. But most, any fare-paying passenger can ride, notably: Washington DC’s ten festive Metrobuses, Chicago’s two subway-L trains, and Boston’s MBTA Polar Express train. In the USA, there’s more to Christmastime than Christmas In our country, around this time of year, we celebrate a variety of holidays, in a wide variety of ways. Soon after Halloween, stores begin displaying holiday merchandise. Turn page for the whole story. Photos credit: Chicago Transit Authority. Chicago Transit Authority has two wonderful holiday subway-L trains. Each has thousands of brilliant lights, many red bows, evergreen garlands and holiday scenes. Hand poles inside resemble candy canes, not edible, of course. Santa’s elves give out plenty of edible ones, however. For more, click on: https://youtu.be/0tgOu4rG6fU 1 .
